Before long, the deal was finalized. They would purchase two hundred units in the first batch.
Each vial of Phoenix 2 cost eighty thousand dollars.
In addition, Osborn Company would handle the chemical waste from this base.
More importantly, Shen Fei obtained the case details of Matt's car accident. Ross simply handed him the files without asking any questions.
Perhaps he had already conducted experiments long ago, but they had failed.
On the way back, Shen Fei looked at the waste formula in his hand. "Waste from the Super Soldier Serum?
But it looks like it might be somewhat related."
Shen Fei had not expected it to be waste from the Super Soldier Serum.
Norman spoke up then. "Ross once had me research the Super Soldier Serum, but that failed too.
The Human Enhancement Serum was proposed based on that idea as well."
Connors, who was driving, could not help asking, "Eighty thousand a vial? Boss, according to our budget, it should have been one hundred thousand per vial.
Those military guys have so much funding they do not know where to spend it. They are even diverting military funds to buy coffee. Why are we giving them the lowest price?"
"To build a good relationship with Ross, and for the chemical waste.
Ross is a smart man. He may have some intelligence himself. He may even have run experiments already and merely claimed he could not produce it." Shen Fei continuously calculated the differences between the chemical waste and the Super Soldier Serum.
He discovered that the Super Soldier Serum really was the source of almost everything in Marvel.
Many mutant serums had originally begun as attempts to research the Super Soldier Serum.
Yet they always ended up producing strange and bizarre things.
"The two hundred vials need to be delivered within a month. We may need to expand our raw-material production."
"Now that we have gene-editing technology, we can begin cultivating our own extraordinary organisms as materials.
Logan can serve as a relatively important test subject.
We also need to continue observing his subsequent changes."
"Understood."
Inside the military base, Ross left after the transaction was completed.
Lieutenant Spa, who had previously been responsible for picking up Shen Fei and the others, entered a restroom at the base. He fiddled with his crotch and pulled out a small pager wrapped in a plastic bag.
After carefully sending out a message,
the pager received a reply not long after. "Hail Hydra!"
"I never expected to see the person the organization was looking for here today..."
The moment Spa first saw Shen Fei, his expression began to change.
But years of training allowed him to maintain a relatively normal expression.
He only came to send the message after the transaction was complete.
He had never expected the person the organization was looking for to have become a major shareholder of Osborn.
How exactly had he managed that?
In the car, Shen Fei called Klaw. "Tighten up the company's security lately. An unwelcome guest should be coming to our door.
But now that we are at Osborn, we cannot leave again.
I put some little things in the laboratory before. You can have someone retrieve them and set them up."
Norman and Connors beside him were somewhat puzzled, but Shen Fei did not explain, and they did not dare ask.
"Hydra. I took something very important from Hydra before. They have their eyes on me now."
Previously, they might not have known exactly what Hydra was, since it was an extremely ancient organization. But ever since Project Insight had been thwarted,
and Ultron's mess had been pinned on Hydra as well,
they all knew who Hydra was.
A terrorist organization that sought to rule the world.
"Don't worry. They are rats in the gutter now and do not dare make a big show of themselves. With what I have prepared, it will be enough to deal with them.
But wherever Hydra appears, those so-called Super Heroes tend to show up as well.
When the time comes, we may not be able to avoid dealing with them."
The moment Shen Fei saw Spa, he knew there was something wrong with him. In that instant, Spa's heartbeat had accelerated considerably.
Although it quickly calmed down, that reaction proved that the man knew him.
Shen Fei had never dealt with the military, so he could not possibly know Spa.
Therefore, the most likely possibility was that Spa was also one of Hydra's men.
Although every country was now cracking down on Hydra, that did not mean they had all disappeared. They had merely hidden themselves more deeply.
After returning to Osborn, Shen Fei did not immediately enter the laboratory. Instead, he began setting up defensive measures for his lab. He had arranged all of them during his spare time.
But they were enough to guard against ordinary people.
He did not like fighting battles he was not certain of winning.
As long as he had resources in hand, he would prepare the best defenses possible.
His approach to enemies was somewhat like Batman's. If the enemy did not move, neither would he, but he would keep stockpiling power. The moment they dared to act, he would strike instantly and kill them.
Once everything was more or less ready,
Shen Fei entered the laboratory. Matt was strapped to the operating table.
"Boss, the composition has been analyzed..."
Connors hurried into the laboratory. After returning, he had immediately analyzed the composition of the chemical waste copied from the base.
By rights, it must have been because an accident had occurred. Combined with the possibility that Ross possessed some of Matt's information,
he had likely intended to recreate Matt. But Ross's people probably lacked sufficient scientific expertise.
That was why he had handed the backup files to Shen Fei.
"The components have been prepared. They are mixing in the chemical tank now."
Shen Fei nodded. "Begin analyzing his genetic sequence. Have the volunteers arrived?"
"They have. Ten volunteers in total."
"Good! The Daredevil Project officially begins!"
Only someone who had experienced Super Senses could understand how amazing they were. Even the equipment Shen Fei had recreated merely from the unique structure of Matt's ears
had allowed him to obtain an enormous amount of information. If he wanted to, he could hear conversations throughout an entire building.
He could even determine in his mind whether someone was a person he had met before and construct a model of the scene there.
Now, the time had finally come to give his own body that ability.
Inside the isolation chamber, ten naked test subjects were each strapped to an operating table.
Because the serum contained radiation.
Although the radiation might not be very strong, it was better to prevent it from affecting anyone else.
Shen Fei directed the operation from outside. He had to observe the genetic sequence changes in all ten people at the same time and compare them with Daredevil's, finding the most suitable dosage of the Daredevil Serum.
Now that the conditions were sufficient, Shen Fei naturally conducted everything he could simultaneously.
"Experiment begins! Administer the injections!"
Shen Fei stepped up to the control console. There were two computers there. One displayed Matt's genetic sequence, while the other showed ten images, each displaying one of the ten subjects' genetic sequences.
He needed to continuously analyze the differences between them in an extremely short time and make them completely identical.
At Shen Fei's command, ten syringes immediately injected the serum into the corners of the volunteers' eyes.
Shen Fei wanted to reproduce, as closely as possible, the scientific process behind Matt's mutation.
